Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You like to hurt me, you know that you do
You like to think in some way that it's me and not you
You like to have me jump and be good
But I don't want to do it
You don't know why I won't act the way you think I should
You thought they'd make me behave and submit
What were you thinking 'cause I don't forget
[Verse 2]
You don't know why I won't give in
Hell with the pressure, I'm not caving in
You know that I got under your skin
You sold your soul but I won't let you win
You talk too much, you say I do
Difference is nobody cares about you
[Verse 3]
You've got all the answers
You know everything
Well, nobody asked you
It's a mystery to me
[Verse 4]
I'm sorry for you
Not sorry for me
You don't know who in the hell to or not to believe
I'm sorry for you
Not sorry for me
You don't know who you can trust now
But you should believe
You should believe
You don't know who you can trust now
But you should believe
[Verse 5]
You close your eyes
All well and good
I'll kick your ass like I said that I would
You told them stories they'd rather believe
Use and confuse them, they're numb and naive
Truth is the truth, hurts, don't you agree?
It's harder to live with the truth about you
Than to live with the lies about me
[Verse 6]
Nobody owes you
Not one god damn thing
You know where to put your
Just shut up and say
[Verse 7]
I'm sorry for you
Not sorry for me
You don't know who in the hell to or not to believe
I'm sorry for you
Not sorry for me
You chose to hurt those that love you and won't set them free
Won't set them free
You chose to hurt those that love you and won't set them free
You know me, anyone who knows you feels sorry for you
You got nobody
You can see all that you got from me
I know that you tried to tear me apart
